September Whitetail Scouting Update
End of Month Weather Conditions Looking Promising…
Here at Heartland Lodge, we’ve been busy monitoring trail cameras, mowing our clover food plots, over-seeding a few of our fall plots with oats and rye, and fine tuning our treestand set ups. So far, this September has been fairly mild and wet. Over the last few weeks, we’ve received several timely rains. With all the precipitation our food plots are looking very lush to say the least! Looking ahead, it looks like a major heat dome will be bringing more summer-like weather conditions for the next few weeks before starting to cool off just before the season opener with temperatures forecasted to be in the 70’s and low temperatures in the 50’s. Although I’m ready for the 80–90-degree temperatures to be over with, our brassica food plots will flourish in this late summer heat!
